Good afternoon parents/guardians of 8th grade students!
A couple of upcoming events/reminders that we would like to share a little more information about with you.
5/15 - All 8th grade students will be participating in the Yegua Science Exhibition on May 15. This event requires students to work with a small group or partner to create a science fair project over a topic of their choice for their final major grade in their science class. Students will have the opportunity to work on their projects in class or at home until the project is due. Rubrics have been given to the students and they are already working on them. Any additional materials that they will need to complete this project WILL NOT be provided aside from the poster that they are required to make since their projects were chosen on their own. If students would like to use a trifold paper over a poster board to present their information, that will also need to be purchased on their own.
5/25 - 8th Grade promotion is May 25th at 6:30pm in the Yegua Center. We ask that students arrive between 6 and 6:15 where they will check in and wait in the High School Library with an adult while parents go and find their seats in the Yegua Center. They will be escorted to enter the Yegua Center together prior to the start of this event. Students are encouraged to dress nice for this event as they walk the stage for their certificate and awards.
5/26 - Finally, we will have an 8th grade picnic celebration on May 26th. If you would like to donate snacks or drinks to our 8th graders, please sign up on the form sent home with your child.
If you have any additional questions, please email Hayley Balboa at hbalboa@somervilleisd.org.
Thanks and have the best day!
